LL lost to Kool Moe Dee? When was this?

Up until the early 90s, LL was the undisputed GOAT. Yeah, you had Ra, Kane and G Rap, but LL edged them out as a total package IMO. When the new jacks at the time (Nas, Big, Wu, Redman) came out, he couldn't keep up. He was still making dope records, but them cats was on a whole other level, as to be expected in an ever evolving game. All that being said, he's still on my top 10 list, and Mama Said is one of the greatest rap albums ever.

@labbaby to me i give Moe Dee the edge 2-1i aint going to front Jack the Ripper was the shit and i great answer back to How Ya Like Me Now. i will drop their disses.

But shit LL Cool J dropped Todd Smith in 95 and went 2x plat and hung with the new jacks

You must not have heard To The Break Of Dawn...


"and got the nerve to have them Star Trek shades on"... chill

But nah, when I was sayin he couldn't keep up with the new jacks, I meant artistically. Mr. Smith was the jam (all them songs posted is my joints, plus No Airplay)... but it wasn't seeing RTD, Illmatic, OBC4L, etc. Plus he really buried himself with that Phenomenon shit.

I heard break of dawn then after that Death Blow was dropped and it was over

The thing that killed KMD to me was he spent a lot of that record callin LL played out, yet for one, he was still using that old ass style, and two, he was on the outs as well. He ripped that track, but he shot himself in the foot with that whole concept.

GOAT thread

I gotta ask though.

If a rapper used ghost writters for a good portion of his career, does he still keep his credibility ?

 

[NothingButTheTruth]

Lol @ LL not being top 10.

@goodsiqmoney if a emcee use ghostwriters for a portion of his career yeah he lose some credibility

 

[moedays]

LL had a nice run. From what 85-08, nothing but Gold, plat, and double plat. except for the last one.

 

[moedays]

And he wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty battling no matter how big he got.

 

[N YO HOOD]

Any nigga who can make a dope song out of breakfast cereal gets my vote

 

[plocc]

Cant front on uncle. Had the perfect balance of street bangers, and pop joints for the ladies. He was the bridge from 1st school to next school. He was my favorite until kane and rakim made everybody step their game up. Walking With A Panther is one of the best hip hop albums ever.
